The portion of the compound in the preceding plate is rachalita nirantara-pranaya-rasa-bharakishta. Kåmaripa-Lakshmisasuma, where the last two words must be Lakshmi-sama-; see above, Vol. XII, p. 75.
For the qualities called a ligánika-gunab see the Nitisara of Kamandaka, iv, vy. 6-8 and Flect, Cor. Ins. Ind., Vol. III, p. 169 n.
